Burkman should go to the wec. He looses everytime he goes up in competition with the ufc.

I got Aurelio, on the basis that Franca doesn't stay busy enough imo.

I picked Franca but after reading what he did before the start of the fight I hope he loses.

I'm getting a little annoyed with all of these hype act's that are making the fighters look less and less respectful.

Marcus Aurelio enters first, proudly carrying the American Top Team flag behind him. Gesias “JZ” Calvancante is in his corner. Hermes Franca comes out to the tune of “Crazy Train” and is seen with a confident smirk on his face. Fans cheer as he enters the Octagon and Franca purposely shoves Aurelio as he makes his way around the cage. The little altercation is broken up quickly.

R1- Franca swings wildly right away. Hermes lands a low kick while Marcus jabs. Franca lands another hard low kick that gets Aurelio’s attention. Both fighters have periods of moving forward with Hermes throwing wide hooks and leg kicks while Aurelio is content to counter with jabs. Franca lands a nice straight right followed by another low right kick, Hermes is becoming more effective with his kicks. Fans boo after the round ends.

MMAWeekly scores R1 10-9 for Hermes Franca.

Seems like Francas going to take the ud, sounds like the kicks are hurting marcus, i didnt think hed beable to take hermes down anyways so its going to be even harder for him now. I wounder if they shake at the end of the fight.

Franca seems to be working the legs hard!... and i think its the first time he has defended a a take down....looks like Maximus legs are shot, dont think he will pull this one off.

Ah damn, I would have thought Aurelio might have been able to take Franca down and work on his top game for most of the fight, meh.Still one more round!

10/25/08 8:41:52PM

10-8 round apparently. Looks like it should be a UD for Hermes.

Lol and apparently that round ended 10-8 for Franca. Marcus got a point taken away!

2-2 with 22 points, looking good so far. But I've been disappointed before, so im trying not to get my hopes up too much
